bug search fails to search/return bugs filed against Project Name

[Jeff Lane ]

If I have a project FOO hosted at Launchpad, and I report bugs against FOO, it follows that when I search Launchpad for FOO, I should see a list of all bugs associated with project FOO.

Moreso, if I report bugs to FOO, BAR and BAZ projects, as well as 10 other Ubuntu projects, when I go here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/~bladernr/+bugs

Which should show ONLY bugs related to ME, and I search for FOO

https://bugs.launchpad.net/~bladernr/+bugs?field.searchtext=FOO

I should see all of my bugs that I have filed against FOO that are still in an open state.

If I go to Advanced Search, I should be able to likewise search for specific states, priorities, etc for bugs I filed against FOO.

For a real world example, I have filed several bugs against HEXR.

However, if I go to https://bugs.launchpad.net/~bladernr/+bugs and search for HEXR or hexr, I only get a list of 12 bugs that actually have the word 'hexr' in the text somewhere. I do NOT see the 17 actual bugs I've filed against HEXR that are still in an Open state.

This makes it quite difficult to find bugs I've filed against specific projects when I need to, which happens fairly often.

Target substring search was removed as part of bug #268508 and bug #607960, and target matching as a whole was removed as a side-effect of switching bug searches to BugTaskFlat (that ends up using Bug.fti only, not BugTask.fti that used to include targetnamecache).
